This has been quite a year for Kanye West. So how did the rapper and his new wife, Kim Kardashian, celebrate his 37th birthday?

Kanye turned 37 on June 8, and Kim took to Instagram to post an adorable photo taken last month of them kissing at their wedding reception in Italy. Kanye's birthday is exactly one week before their daughter North West's birthday. North turns one year old on June 15.

"Happy Birthday to my husband and best friend in the entire world!" Kim's captions the pic. "You have changed my life in more ways than you know! The way you look at life inspires me! I love you so much!!!"

What a sweet message! We sometimes forget just how great these two are for each other, and so seeing her birthday message to him reminds us that they really are a super couple.

Kim also posted a pic (above) of the tempting birthday cake that Kanye enjoyed for his special day. "Birthday Cake!!!!!" Kim simply captions the photo.

This cake looks delish, and it spells out the name of Kanye's most recent album, Yeezus. This pic proves that Kanye can have his album and eat it, too.

We're wishing Kanye a very happy birthday, and we hope this year is as amazing for him as the last one was.
